Police Chief Walter Armstrong told city officials Monday that police will camouflage the cameras and place them in different areas where there has been illegal dumping.

The Vicksburg Post reported that Armstrong provided no timetable for getting the cameras in place.

However, when they're in place and litterers are caught, Armstrong says dumpers will be charged with felonies. Violators will face fines ranging from $100 to $50,000 and/or one to 5 years in jail, if the material dumped weighs more than 15 pounds

Mayor George Flaggs Jr. said the city is implementing a pilot program that included regular inspection of major city streets, video surveillance and strict enforcement of the city's litter and trash ordinances.

An Iranian military observation aircraft flew within 50 yards of an armed U.S. Navy helicopter over the Persian Gulf this month, sparking concern that top Iranian commanders might not be in full control of local forces, CNN has learned.
